Men work there, they have families and lives. You want to force them to offer “my sideloading”. That’s absolutely entitled thinking. Let free men make free choices and stop this authoritarian crusade.

The men who work at Apple would be coerced. Of course we are all coerced by the law in matters of morality, I.e. the 10 commandments. But you’re wanting to put “my sideloading” at the level of theft or other such crimes. That’s unreasonable

I’ll let you have the last comment and won’t comment after this, but you’re equating a company not providing the feature set you want with bullying. Especially when they’re multiple alternatives with the feature you want, I think it just co

Of course it’s their God given right. It shouldn’t be their right to violate God’s law, but “my totes fav phone provider totes doesn’t have side loading” is just entitled, and an unjust use of coercion.

Take your freedom? Is someone now forcing you to buy an iPhone, like you want to force Apple to make a product?

No you’re not. No one forced you to buy a Mac.

Someone offering a product they’re free to make and you’re free to buy is not coercion. Forcing a man to make the product you want is.

MacOS offers others because Apple wants to. They could lock it down, they’re free to. But they would lose customers. But they’re free and you’re free.

You bought that thing wide eyed as to its capabilities. Now you’re complaining and want to use coercion to get a feature. Yea it’s entitled and unnecessary. I can understand if Apple murdered someone and you want to punish them, use the la

What entitlement. Microsoft makes an OS, they can design it how they want. You can buy it if you want.

Generally laws should protect negative rights, not enforce positive ones. I can’t think of a more entitled law than “my fav phone maker totes doesn’t have side loading”. What an egregious use of force.

Men own and work at the business, so a useless distinction.

Hah, I laughed at that one. Good one. Of course the needless regulation and coercion is forcing Apple to act.

If Apple was so good that men voluntarily gave them 90% market share you’d call them a monopoly, though it was freely given. Now if they acted immorally, they ought to be reprimanded, but you demanding freedom by coercion is immoral.

Maybe it won’t, but the larger point is that some are demanding freedom by coercing others to do their bidding. Let free men make free choices.

The coercion is the problem. You are free to buy any phone you want, but want to coerce other men into doing what you want. It’s immoral.

If Microsoft advertised and open system and then lied, that’s immoral. But they had no obligation to even allow other software to be installed.

So you’re advocating freedom … by coercion? This is immoral. Besides immoral, obviously tons of apps would leave the App Store for a different store making it a much crappier experience for folks that use those very popular apps.

The entitlement here is unreal. “I should be free to coerce others into doing what I want”. Man, just buy an Android. Unreal.

The entitlement is terrible on this site. “I should be free, but they should be coerced”. People can’t even see their own moral foibles.

So you’re advocating freedom for you and coercion for others. You’re free to buy an Android, no one’s forcing you to do anything. Free not to buy Apple. But you won’t extend that to others, forcing them to bow to your demands or lose their

You seem to have high opinions about what others don’t have the right to do with software they invest their own money into. Here’s an idea, let’s drop the coercion and let free men make free choices.

You’re advocating for freedom for you and coercion for someone else. These double standards are immoral. You are not coerced into buying anything, but see nice hardware and your greed gets the best of you.

Incorrect. A select few greedy people are using force for stupid ends. Besides immorally using force now the iPhone will be littered with alt stores where you can only get certain popular apps making the iPhone a nightmare. Those who though

Until everyone moved out of Apples store due to the Apple tax and you have to go explain to non-techies how to avoid spam and malware.

Wish for extra features is not the same thing as crush the free market with the arm of government.
